She’s coming around
A few weeks ago my wife said that she and my daughter would start coming to Church with my son and me. Inside I was doing cartwheels.
Now the back story: Lainey (wife) and Sophie (daugheter, aged
have been going to Lainey’s Baptist Church. Paul (aged 2) has been coming to St. Anne with me. Lainey and I both long for us all to be together on in worship, but I made it clear that this was not something I would comprimise on.
Her change partly came about in the context of asking her assent to have Paul baptized. I think he will be soon. Shucks the kid has been trying to climb into the baptistry (literally) since he could walk. When I go up for communion I take him with me and Father gives him a blessing. I kinda sling him below the cloth as I take communion. Last week, when I hoisted him up to get his blessing he said, “I eat it.” I can’t think of a more obvious indication that the boy should be baptized.








Glory to God!
Our prayers are with you. As wonderful as it is to be Orthodox, how much better to be an Orthodox family!
